    Adieu, Farewell, Bon Voyage

    Hello Fellow kiwibikers...

    What a 'F*@ked up few months' I have had to quote someone I spoke with today. After flying my ex-fiance up here last weekend and listening to my 3 1/2 year old niece (listen to the children, they know what they are talking about) I have decided for this period in my life I am no longer getting on a motorcycle. I am going to miss it, but I feel it needs to be done. More time needs to be spent working out me now. Having this accident and tests for cancer, it has been hell. And there are days where I just want to jump right back on, but I have been asked not to ride anymore by someone whose opinion I value more than anything and that is the case.

    However, I am just on two weeks away from my return to Wellington, so it will be good to catch up with you guys, maybe some sort of dinner get together? However, first thing is first, must find place to live etc.

    Oh, and thanks for it all guys & Gals. But don't think for a second that I won't be lurking around on here reading the posts every now and then.

    Keep it all together everyone.

    Your friend and former rider

    Sean
    This is who we are

    It's good to know you're on the improve. Don't rush getting back on a bike. Only you can know when the time will be right.

    It would be great to catch up on your return to Wellington -- a good opportunity for a KBer get-together for sure!

    Hopefully you won't be bikeless forever... all in good time though.

    Sing out when you're back here - a get together would be a great idea.

    Hey There - it sounds like your decision is well thought out. Take care & let us know when & where we'll be having the catch up
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    Full support from this corner dude... good luck with whatever comes your way. Would be good to hear you are on 2 wheels again at some point, but only you know the timing.

    Keep well, and look after #1

    With the past experiences with bikes, no bloody wonder you want to have a break from them

    Don't stay away from bikes too long

    We certainly respect your decision... I hope you stay in touch, and possibly look at biking in the future? If I had anyone else to consider, I might make similar choices, but for me, whadda way to go ey???

    I REALLY enjoyed your bike description on your profile "Burning in hell" Wasn't that the truth!

    All the best for the future.
    Dave.
